Carlile's rail connections allow the transport of large and heavy loads which are preferred to be handled or more cost effective to move by rail.

Through the Alaska Railroad's Alaska Rail Marine service railcars can be shipped efficiently without transloading between Alaska and the Lower 48.

Another method is to ship products in bulk by rail to the Tacoma Terminal where they can be split and shipped LTL over a period of time to Alaska. Rail spurs are conveniently located at or near our terminals in Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Tacoma.
